Kanye West took home Best Rap Album at the Grammy Awards on Sunday night for his debut ‘The College Dropout’. Upon accepting the honor, West said, “Y’all might as well get the music ready because this is going to take a while. When I had my accident, I found out at that moment nothing in life is promised except death. If you have the opportunity to play this game of life, you need to appreciate every moment. A lot of people don’t appreciate their moment until it’s past. Then you got to tell those Al Bundy stories. ‘You remember when I’… but right now is my time, and my moment, thanks to the fans, thanks to the accident, thanks to God, thanks to Rocafella, Jay-Z, James G, my mother, Rhymefest, everyone that’s helped me, and I plan… I plan to celebrate… I plan to celebrate and scream and pop champagne every chance I get because I’m at the Grammys, baby! (Applause) I know… I know everybody asks me the question. They want to know, what… I know he’s going to… he’s going to do something crazy. Everybody wants to know what I would do if I didn’t win. I guess we’ll never know.”
